BBVA has announced its decision not to reverse its intention to buy Sabadell, after considering the condition imposed by the Spanish Government on the transaction last week, as reported to the National Securities and Exchange Commission.
Last Tuesday, 24 June, the Council of Ministers approved the operation on the condition that the two entities (BBVA and Sabadell) maintain separate legal autonomy and day-to-day management.
